[SAC-HELP] stack smashing

[Arthur Snoke]

Is the a reason you cannot upgrade to 101.4?  I had experienced that bug, 
in the older versions.   It was the total number of characters 
for the composite of filepecs that caused the problem.  The way I had 
gotten around it before it got fixed was to run a script that shortened 
the file names.
